About Greenilai



Greenilai Technologies is an agri technology start-up. We aspire to usher-in a positive change in food habits by helping urbanites grow fresh, healthy & pesticide-free vegetables at their premises, requiring no gardening knowledge and very little manual efforts.

Inspired by Passion


Most of us are concerned about the quality of vegetables and fruits available. Reckless usage of pesticides, conditions in which they are grown, harvested, transported and retailed are shocking.
Unfortunately, a very large majority of the urban residents do not have access to space and infrastructure to cultivate. We are focusing on inventing ways and means to enable urban farming within your premises; be it homes, communities, offices or restaurants.
And we are passionate about it.

Powered by Technology


Hydroponics, the soil-less method of cultivation, is being recognized world over as one of the best methods of urban farming. Compared to soil-based farming, this method requires less than half space, 70% less water, has shorter harvest cycle and gives higher yield. A pesticide-free, eco-friendly urban farming method at its best.

Driven by Innovation


Traditional hydroponics cultivation requires knowledge of plants and need regular attention. Our automated, self-managed system eliminate such pre-requisites and make it possible for anyone to grow most of the vegetables.
A system to grow fresh, tasty nutritious and safe vegetables for your family.
A system that is great value-for-money.
